It is better for some people to be silent, because as soon as they start talking or ask a question they cause much damage mostly to themselves. B.C. is, at the same time, a ‘’double president’’: UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ President and the BU ‘’Media’’ President. B.C. does not print trade union newspaper ‘’Nezavisnost’’, what for he is obliged in compliance with the UBU Statute but this wasn’t an obstacle for him to become a co-owner of the newspaper ‘’Danas’’ from a ‘’wretch’’ and victim he used to be at one time. Is there a ‘’conflict of interests’’ here or not?

CONFLICT OF INTERESTS IN ‘’NEZAVISNOST’’ TRADE UNION ?




Belgrade, June 11 2008
B.C.’s resourcefulness was expressed fully while he was trying to settle accounts with the MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ and its representatives. The latest B.C.’s stupidity has been reflected in an attempt to spread pathological hatred and obsession by Metal Workers, through UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ regional coordinators, in such a way as to prove the existence of ‘’conflict of interests’’ which allegedly exists in the case when a representative of a regional branch union is elected as UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ coordinator or has some other unionist position within the branch union of which he is a member.

METAL WORKERS - COORDINATORS OF UBU ‘’NEZAVISNOST’’ REGIONS, SCORING OUTSTANDING RESULTS!

The appointing of regional trustees of UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ is regulated by the Statute, namely, by Article 39., item 9., which reads as follows: ‘’The Leading Committee founds regional offices and appoints regional trustees by previous obtaining of Branch Unions opinion.’’ One should take into account that regional trustees are not ‘’trade union’s bodies’’, but they are persons appointed by the L.C. By virtue of Article 35. of the UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ Statute, the UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ bodies are: Congress, Leading Committee, Auditing Committee and Statutory Committee.

At this time, nine women and men colleagues are regional trustees, being members of MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’. A large number of Metal Workers were dismissed from the position of UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ coordinator, due to their inactivity and non-observance of the Statute, but the MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ did not support those colleagues.

The most numerous regions in respect of membership and finance are coordinated by MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ representatives, such as Beograd, Bor, Zrenjanin, Krusevac, Pancevo, Smederevo, Jagodina, Novi Pazar, Uzice. All of them are experienced, skilled and reliable unionists representing ‘’Nezavisnost’’ Union in the Region. B.C. promised, as earlier, that he would take care of regional trustees, i.e. providing better working conditions, full-time employment, as it was 5 years ago, and they are still working for very low wages. Instead of keeping those promises, B.C. has started working on ruining those same people by trying to prove a ‘’conflict of interests.’’

CANAK - FROM A ‘’VICTIM’’ TO CO-OWNER OF THE NEWSPAPER ‘’DANAS’’

B.C. himself remained President of the ‘’Nezavisnost’’ Branch Union of the ‘’Media’’, although he is, at the same time, the President of UBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’. What is it in fact, is it a conflict of interests? Just as a reminder: Regional Trustees were Zdravko Kovac, B.C.’s favorite, when he was President of ‘’Nezavisnost’’ Branch Union of Educators, Novica Radojcin, former Regional Trustee in Pancevo, who was Vice-President of MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’, and it was explained to B.C. at the previous Session of the Presidency that his reflections had no base in the Statute, and he was still stubborn by insisting on having his own way.

We all remember the 90-ties, how difficult it was, especially for us, members of ‘’Nezavisnost’’. Many people remember B.C.’s complaining, because he didn’t get his pay and that he was the greatest victim of those years. In those years, B.C. became a co-owner of the newspaper ‘’Danas’’, namely, ‘’DAN GRAF’’ Company with deposit of € 14.027,29 since 31/03/2000, the nominal value of which was 4,15%, but according to estimates of experts in the economy, the value of newspaper ‘’Danas’’ was estimated to several million Euro.
